      He has good soldering skills, but the approach he is taking is not perfect. The short was caused by himself and the repair was too time-consuming. You do only need to recover the data, you don‘t need to solder a proper port to it.

    IMPRESSIVE. It happened to me several times. Assuming that something is ok and looking for the failure EVERYWHERE else. And right when you think "it can't be that piece" you suddenly realise it is indeed that piece who's causing you so many problems.

    The short was probably from the first bridge you made, 7:57 a big tail is hanging out next to the track or it shorted on the connector pins when you soldered it on top.

  • @Michigan-Tactical
    @Michigan-Tactical 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    One of your jumpers contacted a pin on the connector. It was the wire soldered to D+. When you soldered the connector on, it made contact with ground via the connector pin (I think pin 6).

    pin 4's jumper point which is D+ was right under pin 5 which was ground . so actually when you solder the jack onto it, the solder actually creeps under the pin 4 and 5 and makes a bridge under it which your microscope couldn't see. please check my referrence at 21:38 . I have been doing micro soldering since 2004 and these kind of issues happen when you solder onto jumpers.

    Nice video...love those long videos and repair on stuff like a thumbdrive. That was really tricky, but we all learned something about this. I never knew that there are usb sockets with different pin-outs. Thought they have all the same pinouts like usb3.0 = usb3.0...but now, we all learned something. Perfect video.
    👍👌
    I have an idea for your video on soldertips, maybe you could explain why your tips always look so clean. Is it cause you are using a copper-wire- leaner? Do you leave a small spot of solder on the tip when you turn off the station?

    • @HAGmbHkeG
      @HAGmbHkeG ปีที่แล้ว

      maybe the socket is one that's supposed be mounted on the underside of the board so it has a mirrored pinout and it would be correct if viewed from the bottom?
      would have loved to see a quick comparison with the meter in diode mode.
      and yes, leave your tip covered with solder when turning off/letting it cool down to prevent oxidisation (tip not being shiny anymore).

    I would suggest for this type of repair you have a USB breakout cable and breadboard. You can just solder wires to the headers and connect them to a breadboard which as a USB header on. You can keep reusing this. After all you never gonna hand the flash drive back and say sure just keep using it. It always as case of grab the files and the client can buy a new flash drive to copy them on to.

    • @krisnrg

      If you’re using flux core solder only. You should do what you mentioned. But I’d you apply flux separately there is some lateral to add solder to the iron and apply it. Watch some micro solder videos you can apply solder to the iron and just drag it across all pins. With enough flux it works fine
